I'm fairly new to following soccer. I've got into it as my kids have got pretty heavily into playing. I've never really understood the NASL and how it came to be proclaimed the 2nd tier league in North America. I am obviosly biased as I am a season ticket holder for a USL team, but I've been impressed with the quality of play of our team. USL teams were 6-0-1 against NASL teams last night in US open cup matches.
I've read that the USL is going for division 2 status. Why the talk of Calgary going for an NASL team and not a USL team?

Because Edmonton and Ottawa are in the NASL.
To be fair, our current pro team, Calgary Foothills SC, has set their strategy to start in PDL-Pro and move up to USL.
